10 Responses to 2013 Bills Rap, Wk1 vs. New England

With a new Rap a new season can officially begin. And a new era? Well, maybe we’ll have to wait until NEXT week for that, when we might beat the Panthers. Maybe. Anyway, well done as always, Nick. So, yes indeed…

But I suppose it’s a bit of a chicken or egg thing. A better defense would take pressure off young Erik James, while above average play from the QB position would cover for a mediocre defense, to be sure.

Of course, I want BOTH. But, given my stated skepticism about the EJ pick, I guess my expectations are higher for the defense to be good, before EJ is good, if ever he will be.

Even an average NFL Defense (which my lowered standards would kill for at this point) would help to ease any early struggles that #3 will surely face; particularly since I am highly concerned about our O-Line. This new starting group is unproven, and we are one injury away from complete disaster, because we have NO depth there, at all. EJ is going to take some hard shots. I just hope the kid is tough, and resilient. Only then will we find out whether he can be good.

But, even without Gilmore or maybe Byrd, surely we CAN play some “average” defense, can’t we, Mike Pettine?

P.S. The above comments only apply starting with Week 2, since Game One is likely to be a bloodbath.

[…] The raps have to do with whatever team the Bills are playing that given week. Anything from that team he can incorporate he will and also toss in things about the Bills that were story lines through the offseason/week. The first week can be heard here as I have the link. […]
